"What is it, and what is it recorded?" The prince asked urgently. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
If some ulterior secrets are known to the emperor, things will be very difficult.
"Your Royal Highness, the little one is not clear, our people are too far away from the emperor, and they have not heard the dialogue between the emperor and the king of Qi clearly!" Xiao Anzi reported uneasily.
When the prince heard this, he took a long breath and ordered: "Send someone to closely monitor King Yan and King Qi!" With that, he raised his hand and motioned for Xiao Anzi to step back. At this time, the prince's face was pale, and he looked at He Hengrui and Li Minhao, and his expression was not very good.
For a moment, the prince couldn't help but realize something, and asked: "Zuo servant, Li Shangshu, have you accepted Wei Changkong's heavy gifts?" ”
"Your Royal Highness, Weichen never expected that Wei Changkong was ...... this guy" Li Minhao, the secretary of the ministry, looked panicked, and yesterday alone, he accepted Wei Changkong's jewelry worth thousands of gold, and promised to help Wei Changkong seek the position of Hangzhou assassin in the court.
He Hengrui was silent, and from his complicated expression, it could be proved that he also received Wei Changkong's heavy gifts.
The prince was secretly angry, but it was not easy to attack. His own people were not angry, and he was caught by the king of Qi.
couldn't help but transfer all the anger on Yang Yue's head.
Yang Yue is despicable, in order to implement reform, he secretly exposed the tacit things of the ministers to the sun, isn't he afraid of poking the sky out of the basket?
Today, he dared to be an enemy of a military family, fearing that he would cause an uproar in the court.
At this time, Li Minhao said worriedly: "Your Highness, the left servant shoots, the emperor has the evidence that we have received heavy gifts, will he kill the chickens and set an example for the monkeys, establish his authority in the court, and clear the five surnames and seven wangs, the four surnames in Guanzhong, and the military forces, all of them will be cleared of the court and reduce the resistance to change!" ”
Outsiders don't know what the list is, Li Minhao won't be unclear, most of them are Wei Changkong's list of bribes for many years, after all, he also has it in his hands.
At this moment, the emperor has mastered this kind of list, and it is estimated that it will be like pulling out a carrot, pulling out a big pit, involving many interest groups.
Hearing this, the prince was silent and fell into deep thought, He Hengrui was also a little worried, but said: "Lord Li, things should not be as bad as imagined, if the emperor is ready to eradicate a group of people and grasp the list, at this moment, I am afraid that people have been sent to arrest in Chang'an City!" ”
Having said that, He Hengrui is still worried that before the change, in this game, whoever occupies the initiative between the prince and Yang Yue will be trusted by the emperor in the future.
At this moment, the emperor has mastered the secret letter written by Wei Changkong, and the prince has already lost the upper hand.
More importantly, in the case of having the evidence, the emperor did not take measures, what did he mean, He Hengrui was puzzled, and his heart became more and more worried.
can only comfort himself, but also comfort the prince and Li Minhao, and said: "Your Highness, Lord Li, we will calm down for the time being, wait for tomorrow's dynasty, and wait and see what happens, if the Sixth Highness is strong, he will successfully lobby the emperor." If the emperor wants to establish his authority, the only way to do so is to give up some official positions and let His Royal Highness Liliu go. After the reform is implemented, look for opportunities to stumble over the Six Highnesses. ”
"It seems to be the only way!" Li Minhao's expression was depressed, and he said weakly.
However, the crown prince still did not let go of Yang Yue, and reminded Li Minhao: "Lord Li, be sure to go to the palace of the king of Chu and give the letter to the king of Chu." ”
"Your Highness, rest assured!"
The night was long, and there was silence.
In Chang'an City, many officials tossed and turned, couldn't sleep at night, changed clothes and freshened up at the end of the day, and arrived at the palace on time.
Recently, many things have happened in the court, and it coincides with the great dynasty in the middle of the month, and the emperor has appointed a quota, and there are many officials who have entered the court at the same time.
With the crisp bells of the palace, hundreds of officials entered the court.
With the voice of the imperial eunuch Gao Heng reading, Yang Mingkun slowly walked out from behind the veil in the east, and sat on the dragon chair in the eyes of hundreds of officials.
Gao Heng shook off the dust, and said in a full voice: "If there is something to do, play early, and there is nothing to retreat!" ”
The words fall, which means that the moon is in the middle of the dynasty, kicks off!
At this moment, the head of the Wei family, Wei Changkong's brother, and Wei Changfeng, a member of the Zhongshu House, held Chao Wat, hurriedly stood up, and said in a respectful tone: "Your Majesty, the King of Qi led the Shenwu Army to arrest the clan brother, and he never understood the crime, and the minister interceded for the minister's brother, and hoped that the emperor would deal with it according to law." ”
"Hmph, deal with it according to law, I will deal with it for you according to law!" Hearing this, Yang Mingkun slammed his palm on the dragon case and shouted, "King Qi, stand up and explain to Lord Wei!" ”
At the beginning of the court meeting, the emperor was furious, causing hundreds of officials to panic, and they all realized that today's court meeting was bound to be bloody and murderous.
He Hengrui and Li Minhao glanced at each other, their faces did not change, but their hearts were up and down, at present, the emperor seemed to be more partial to His Royal Highness Six, and the two muttered to themselves
Hearing the sound, on the left side of the main hall, in the ranks of Wenchen, King Qi, who was standing behind the prince, slowly walked out, saluted Yang Mingkun with Chao Wat, turned to look at Wei Changfeng, and said: "Lord Zhongshu, when Wei Changkong served as the assassin of Liangzhou, he looted the people's fat and people's ointment, seized the people's daughters, and caused the people to complain. ”
After that, King Qi took out a fold from his arms and threw it to Wei Changfeng.
Wei Changfeng trembled, stood in the center of the court, opened the fold, and quickly browsed, gradually, Wei Changfeng looked embarrassed, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he felt uncomfortable.
In the excerpts, the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, detailing the numerous crimes committed by Wei Changkong in Liangzhou, and each crime is listed clearly, even the amount of embezzlement and silver.
What's more, there is a victim's fingerprint underneath each offence.
For a while, it was almost ironclad evidence and could not be quibbled.
"Fourth Highness, this is someone deliberately slandering the clan brother!" Wei Changfeng didn't dare to admit it, if he did, Wei Changkong would die, and the Wei family would also be implicated.
"Yes, is it true that the silver and two jewels that this king confiscated in Wei's mansion are also slanderous?" King Qi said loudly, took out another fold from his bosom again, and sneered: "Lord Zhongshu, I know that you are not convinced, take a look at this, Wei Changkong can't help but loot the people's fat and people's ointment, and even bribe the court officials, one of the two crimes is enough for Wei Changkong to be beheaded, and the Wei family is not immune to being implicated." ”
At this time, Wei Changfeng was completely panicked, his legs were weak, his whole body seemed to be emptied, the evidence was conclusive, he was speechless, and he couldn't explain Wei Changkong's matter clearly.
can only shift his attention to the court officials, hoping that his former colleagues will stand up and help him solve problems and clear his suspicions.
However, in the court, the four surnames of Guanzhong, the five surnames and the seven wang officials are all in danger, and it is too late to curse Wei Changkong, how can they catch fire and kill themselves.
For a while, the court was silent, and the officials did not dare to speak.
Above the dragon chair, Yang Mingkun sipped tea, swept over the hundreds of officials in the court, shocked the ministers, and achieved the goal, and said to King Qi in a warm voice: "King Qi, today's dynasty, it is important to discuss the matter of change, and the matter of Wei Changkong will end in the early dynasty, and it will be discussed according to the actual situation."
